We are in a good position, playing well win our two games in hand both at home we are just three points off the automatic spots. Six games up to New Year’s Day four at home, before transfer window opens. The message to Kompany is simple “miljaar” off.

At least we’d still have another 25 goal a season striker here to fire us into the play-offs.

What did Adam Armstrong go for? He's better than Armstrong IMO.

£15 million and has scored THREE goals, we got the best out of him 20 goals in 40 games let’s just stick to good memories.

Not sure it's quite this stark now we have tightened up at the back. Gyok definitely makes a difference no doubt but with the other talent around him I think we'd still be comfortable rather than in a relegation battle. And obviously no where near the play offs!

No point paying any attention to this or any other talk of January sales.
If what we’re being told regarding the club ownership is the truth and it gets ratified in time, we probably won’t sell anyone, if it’s complete and utter BS and/or isn’t completed in time, we will definitely will ‘and almost certainly for less than they’re worth.

It's no coincidence that our upturn in form has coincided with the return of CoH; both are pivotal for us and losing either would be a major blow.

But if the person making the offer knows you have £80.000 equity in your House but can’t afford the mortgage payments and the bank are about to repossess leaving you with nothing and bankrupt, why would he offer more.

Don’t think that’s strictly true. Arguably our run of form started quite a few games before he came back.

But to sell any player or buy for that matter someone has to do the paper work etc. Sepalla can’t, I doubt Boddy dare if he wants a job after takeover, who else could

Well if that were the case and nobody had a hand on the rudder and bills were going unpaid, an administrator would have to be appointed I guess then we really would be selling on the cheap.

Really this speculation turning into reality or not depends on the ownership situation being resolved before January. But the fact we've lost and not replaced our recruitment team on top of that doesn't exactly help.

Why would bills be going unpaid we will have about half a million quid in cash through the turnstiles in December

This if it's tried then will tell us a lot about the takeover,Doug king ,and SISU,hopefully we keep Vic till at least end of season where if he keeps up the form he will be worth even more.

The return of Hamer, and his form, was a critical factor.

He is absolutely pivotal to how we play. As it COH, it isn’t one or the other.

Difference with COH we have alternatives at 10, even if they are inferior, but we can make it work, as we did even if playing poor football.

We have nobody anywhere near Gyokeres in terms of style, form or ability.

He would be an absolutely huge loss. Really not sure what it’s based on but I think he’ll be here until the end of the season, and become a Prem striker with us.

Could be disastrous on the field if Vik goes. Unless there’s some serious/fortuitous reinvestment in a similar forward, but that will take time to nail down, plus our recruitment staff have been shown the door.

Ugggh.

100% this, a lot of clubs keeping a very close eye on our situation, if the takeover comes to nothing or it goes through but proves to be little more than a ‘changing of name‘ at companies house exercise.
On the same note if the takeover goes through and proves to be what we all hope it will be, I think these other clubs will melt away.

Got a mate from that neck of the woods, apparently the rumours started as Viktor has been spotted in Burnley over the last couple of days. One of his cousins got a photo apparently. I'll see if he can get a copy. Awful news.
